At 7738 Sandia Loop in the Foothills at Barton Creek, this 4,587-square-foot residence delivers the rare combination of private luxury and resort-caliber amenities on a nearly one-acre lot. The home was designed around the seamless flow between living and outdoor leisure, with most of the five bedrooms and five bathrooms distributed across the main level to maximize connection to the backyard experience.

The heart of this flow is the newly built pool, completed in 2025 with integrated fountains and an inline cleaning system that eliminates unsightly equipment. The fully fenced rear yard backs to native vegetation and mature trees exceeding 40 feet, creating a completely private landscape where no neighboring homes are visible from the back windows. The motorized shades throughout the home allow you to open these views entirely, blurring the line between interior and exterior living.

Inside, the kitchen centers on a Quartz waterfall island with Thermador appliances and a herringbone marble backsplash, anchored by views through oversized windows. An adjacent wet bar with a copper sink and barn door transitions to a dedicated home office with hardwood flooring and hidden secondary entrance, a layout that accommodates both work and entertaining. Cathedral ceilings, tray ceilings throughout multiple spaces, and recessed lighting create volume and brightness without sacrificing coziness. Crown molding, built-in bookcases, and a double-sided gas log fireplace add refinement to the multiple living and dining areas.

The primary suite anchors the main floor with a primary bathroom featuring a dual-head shower, soaking tub, and walk-in closet system. Two additional main-level bedrooms provide flexibility for guests or additional living arrangements. Upstairs, two more bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and a game room with balcony complete the layout.

At 653 per square foot, this home positions you on a private maintained road where resort-style living isn't a destination you visit, it's where you live.

Barton Creek is Austin's premier golf community in 78735 - four championship courses thread through eight gated villages, twenty minutes from downtown. Median home price around $2.95M, with custom estates ranging from $1.2M patio homes to $6M+ golf-course frontage properties. Austin ISD schools.

Turn off Bee Caves Road and the Hill Country opens up - limestone ridges, old-growth oaks, fairways disappearing into canyons. Fazio Foothills (Tom Fazio's 1986 original at 7,087 yards) is the signature course, with Fazio Canyons and Coore Crenshaw offering different character. The Omni Barton Creek Resort anchors the community with spa, pools, dining, and member events.

Eight gated sections each have distinct character: Amarra Drive for new-build contemporary estates ($3M-$6M+), The Preserve for Hill Country views and privacy, Wimberly Lane for established homes with mature landscaping. HOA governance varies by section - some enforce architectural review strictly, others are lighter touch.

The buyer profile skews toward avid golfers (40% of purchases), families choosing Austin ISD, and C-suite executives who need estate-level privacy 20 minutes from downtown. The Greenbelt borders the western edge, and Sculpture Falls is accessible from within the community.
